Please no module parameters.
Please instead find a way to determine or configure these elements
at run time with generic configuration interfaces.

Please use reverse-christmas-tree ordering (longest to shortest line) for
local variable declarations.
Please fix this in your entire submission.

Please do not use tabs like this when declaring local variables.
Much worse, some functions use this style whereas others do not,
be consistent otherwise your code is very hard to read.
Please fix this for your entire submission not just this specific
case I am pointing out.
Thanks.
